Congratulations to our Early Childhood Education program participants for another year of incredible achievements and outstanding work!

Step-up ceremonies were held at our Amsterdam, Children’s Center, Clinton, Elliott, and Polly Dodge centers to celebrate the accomplishments of the students with their families and loved ones. A very special thanks to the amazing teachers and staff at Hudson Guild for their constant support and dedication to the children!


DISNEY JR.'S SEASIDE CELEBRATION

For Disney Jr.’s new show, Ariel, Battery Park was transformed into Atlantica to celebrate the show and bring under-the-sea fun to both new and old generations of fans. Our friends at Disney invited Hudson Guild early childhood education participants to their seaside celebration filled with mermaid makeovers, bubbles, a treasure hunt, and tons of Carribean-style dancing and musical performances.

Watch the video above to see the fun and hear from Hudson Guild Executive Director Ken Jockers, Educational Supervisor Austin Hudson, and stars of the show, Mykal-Michelle Harris and Taye Diggs.
